Florida Sand Dollar
Mid Century Linen Postcard in very good, unused condition. This post card was made by Tichnor Brothers Inc., of Boston, Massachusetts.
Back of Card:
The Sand Dollar or Holy Ghost Shell is one of Florida's most unusual specimens of marine life. The markings on the shell symbolize the Birth, Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ. On the top side of the shell, an outline of the Easter Lily is clearly seen. At the center of the Lily a five pointed Star representing the Star of Bethlehem appears. The five narrow openings are representative of the four nail holes and the spear wound made in the body of Christ during the Crucifixion. Reversing the shell you will easily recognize the outline of the Christmas Poinsettia and also the Bell. When broken, inside the shell are five little birds called the Doves of Peace. Some say they are the Angels that sang to the Shepherds the First Christmas Morning.
